- We open Facebook and go directly to our profile.
- Let's now move on to the photo section.
- Select a photo, the one you want to be private.
- Once the photo is enlarged, we will be able to see on the right side our name, some text we add, likes, comments, etc.
- But what we really care about is close to date. Since when we click on the said «Privacy» button we will be able to select the option to change the privacy.
Now you need to click on the icon next to the date again and a new menu will appear with some options:
- Public: anyone can see it. Even if you are not registered on Facebook.
- Friends: Only your friends can see this photo.
- Friends except: You can edit so that all your friends see the photo, except some people you choose.
